SERVICE BRAKES
BRAKES HAVE NOT BEEN WORKING AT SLOW SPEEDS. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A FEW YEARS. BROUGHT IT TO A BRAKE SPECIALIST WHO COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. RESEARCHED IT ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT MANY PEOPLE WERE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH A SIMILAR ISSUE. THEY THOUGHT IT WAS A FAULTY VACUUM PUMP. BROUGHT IT TO GMC BEAMAN IN NASHVILLE, TN AND SAW [XXX] (SERVICE ADVISOR FOR BEAMAN AUTOMOTIVE). THEY REPORTED THEY WERE NOT WILLING TO FIX THE ISSUE AND THAT IT WOULD BE CLOSE TO $1000 TO FIX IT. I FIND THIS UNACCEPTABLE AFTER DOING RESEARCH AND FINDING THAT GMC'S PARTS (NOT WEAR AND TEAR) ARE MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THE ETIOLOGY OF THE PROBLEM. I ASK THAT THE DEALERSHIP BE CONTACTED REGARDING THIS GIVEN THE OBVIOUS SAFETY RISK OF THE LARGE VEHICLE NOT BEING ABLE TO STOP. REGARDS, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT *TR

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I HAVE NOTICED AN ISSUE FOR A FEW YEARS WHILE PARKING THAT MY BRAKES WOULD LOCK UP IF USED REPEATEDLY. WHILE GETTING SERVICE DONE I HAD ASKED IF THEY NOTICED ANYTHING AND THEY HAD SAID NO. THEY HAVE KNOW RECOGNIZED IT IS A PROBLEM BUT ARE LIMITING THE FIX TO 72000 MILES WHICH I AM 3K OVER. THEY SAID I HAVE NEVER FORMALLY COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS SO I DISQUALIFY FOR THE $ 540.00 REPAIR. YET THEY RECOGNIZE IT IS AN ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE. I FEEL THEY ARE TRYING TO AVOID A FORMAL RECALL.

SEAT BELTS
THE SEATBELTS IN THE REAR SEATS DO NOT FIT CHILDREN PROPERLY. MY SON IS CURRENTLY THE AGE OF 9 AND IS APPROXIMATELY 100 LBS. SO HE NO LONGER CAN USE A BOOSTER SEAT, HOWEVER THE SEATBELT IS STILL NOT PLACED ACCROSS HIS CHEST APPROPRIATELY WHEN RIDING IN THE VEHICLE. WITH RECOMMENDATIONS TO HAVE CHILDREN RIDE IN THE BACK SEAT,A S IT IS SAFER FOR THEM, IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE A SLIDING SEATBELT RETRACTOR LIKE THE FRONT SEATS PASSENGER AND DRIVER. I AM HOPEFUL THAT WHEN MANUFACTURERING AN Y NEW MODELS THIS COULD BE ACHIEVED TO MAKE OUR CHILDREN SAFER AS A PASSENGER IN A MOTOR VEHICLE.

SERVICE BRAKES
ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS, EACH AT THE END OF A TWO HOUR DRIVE, I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE AND LOST ALL POWER TO MY BRAKES. THEY DID NOT DEPRESS TO THE FLOOR, THEY SEEMED TO ALMOST PUSH BACK. AT THAT POINT I PUSHED HARDER AND THE BRAKE PUSHED TO THE FLOOR. IN BOTH INSTANCES I ALMOST HIT THE PARKED CARS NEXT TO ME. DUE TO NOT HAVING PROPER BRAKING I HAD TO BACK UP AND PULL BACK IN, BRAKES CONTINUED TO DO THE SAME THING. AFTER COMING BACK TO MY TRUCK IN BOTH INSTANCES, ONCE AFTER A WEEK AT THE AIRPORT AND ANOTHER AFTER A FOUR HOUR APPOINTMENT, MY BRAKES WORKED FINE. THIS HAPPENED ON JULY 16, 2018 AND APRIL 11, 2019.

SERVICE BRAKES
2014 GMC SIERRA VACUUM PUMP FAILURE AT 81,201 MILES. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN EPIDEMIC WITH THESE TRUCKS. I TOW AN 8,000 POUND TRAILER AND TO THINK THE TRUCK BRAKES COULD POTENTIALLY NOT WORK IS INSANITY. HOW DOES GM MAKE THE STEERING ELECTRIC ON THIS TRUCK AND PUT ELECTRIC VACUUM PUMPS ON THE CAMARO'S AND CORVETTES BUT DECIDES TO PUT A MECHANICAL VACUUM PUMP ON THE TRUCKS? THIS IS AN IMMEDIATE SAFETY DEFECT THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.
